The body and skin are received from one's parents, so they should not be easily damaged.

And the name, more than anything else, is bestowed by parents and represents a person's most fundamental personality and dignity.

When Li Chen spoke of wanting to change Jian Di's name, he almost couldn't contain the murderous intent welling up inside him.

But the big bald head standing between him and Li Chen made him wisely hold back his impulse.

"Your Highness is wise."

Jian Di, now probably just Jian Xin, he said coldly, then turned and stepped out, disappearing without a trace.

After Jian Xin left, Li Chen bowed to Jie Wàng and said, "Today, thank you, Master."

"Amitabha Buddha."

Jie Wang slightly bowed, saying, "Everything is due to cause and effect, Your Highness. Please don't be so polite."

Li Chen asked, "Will today's level of effort affect the master"

Jie Wang laughed nonchalantly: “Yes, but it’s not much, just a few days' worth of meals.”

Li Chen fell silent for a moment, then said, "Thank you, Master."

This is Li Chen's second thank you, with a few fewer words, but the sincerity has become even deeper.

Jie Wàng smiled faintly, and bowed to Li Chén as a gesture of accepting his thanks.

"Master, when the plaque is ready, should we send it to Southern Shaolin or Northern Shaolin" Li Chen suddenly asked.

In the beginning, Li Chen promised to help Forgetfulness make Shaolin the most powerful martial arts sect in the world, one that was officially recognized by the imperial court.

While members of the martial arts world may not admit it and might even sneer, calling him a "traitorous monk," the common people recognize his actions. And for Buddhism, recognition from the common people means that there is at least some guarantee of pilgrims and believers.

Shaolin is divided into north and south branches, and who gets what ultimately depends on Li Chen's decision.

But now, he intends to hear what Jiewang has to say.

"Forgive my forwardness, Your Highness," Jiwu lowered her gaze and said, "Perhaps they should make the decision themselves."

The plaque of "Southern Shaolin" is something that anyone would go to great lengths to obtain, as it represents the true lineage of Buddhism.

After this, there will be an infinite advantage, and they will both be unable to let each other go.

The nameplate is in Li Chen's hands, they want it, so they have to please Li Chen.

This is Li Chen's foundation for controlling Shaolin North and South.

Especially after the attainment of enlightenment, with no one in the Buddhist world to speak on Li Chen's behalf, this would be his most advantageous option.

"With such generosity, Master, this palace feels somewhat ashamed." Li Chen said sincerely.

Jie Wang smiled kindly, "For a monk like me, the greatest wish in this life is to ensure a continuation of the Buddhist teachings. Now that my wish has been fulfilled, I have no further attachments."

"Your Highness speaks truly. My thoughts may not be shared by all within the Buddhist sect, but I understand this: to oppose Your Highness is to oppose the court, and to oppose the court leads to no good end. Therefore, it is better to place the initiative in your hands. Buddhism may lose some autonomy, but it is always preferable to fading into obscurity."

After speaking, Jie Wang bowed respectfully to Li Chen again and softly said, "Amitabha Buddha."

The echo of the Buddhist chant still lingered in my ears, but before my eyes, there was no trace of Jiewang.

Jie Wang's last words reached Li Chen's ear softly.

"Your Highness, those eight hundred monks, you may incorporate them into your ranks. This humble monk has the teachings to pass down. When necessary, they can even fight against Earth Immortal Realm cultivators, but this is a last resort. After a battle, more than half of the eight hundred monks will inevitably be killed or injured. Your Highness, I implore you to treat them well, and treat the Buddhist sect kindly..."

Li Chen sat in the chair, motionless for a long time.

He knew that this parting, was probably the last time they would ever see each other.voice and said to Huangji Tian, "If you don't want to lose, you have to listen to me."Huangji Tian raised an eyebrow, hesitating: "I'm fine, but these 300,000 soldiers aren't all mine. There are also...
